If you have some free time, you might want to try out this game at www.freerice.com. It’s a multiple choice game vocabulary game. For each correct answer you get, they donate 10 grains of rice. If you check out the totals, it seems that the trend is upwards and they are getting to give away […]

I am updating to the newest version of wordpress and I encountered this error:
WordPress database error: [Table ‘wp_post2cat’ doesn’t exist]
It shows when I post new entries and when I edit old ones. I think I’ve solved it. Still checking if everything works fine. Good thing I have a backup though. It still breaks, and again, […]
New York Fashion Week Changes

I routinely check CNN for news in the morning while settling into my work day and was surprised to read this headline ‘Modesty is returning to fashion runways.’ It’s not something I was expecting anytime soon given the trends in the fashion industry and the recent issues on global warming which might prompt designers to […]

“Art” is a play by Yasmina Reza that was originally written in French. This version being one in Tagalog. This is the first Tagalog full length play that I’ve seen. I admit it is still a challenge for me to watch shows in Tagalog since I’m more used to shows (TV, plays, musicals, movies, etc) […]

From the BBC:
“Because of the one-child policy there are fewer children in China. So, many schools are changing into old people’s homes. It’s very common now.” On the ground floor, the residents queue up for lunch. Some of them have pensions to pay the care home fees. Others rely on their children to pay for […]
Bar hopping is a term I haven’t heard in a long time, perhaps the people I hang out with do not generally frequent Clubs and Bars. We frequent dining places and movie houses. Perhaps the allure of newly renovated movie house has spurred the renewed interest in watching a movie. I used to watch a […]
Please respond or your friend may think you said no.
This is the latest ploy by social networking sites to persuade friends into signing up for a service. I accept only those that do not require me to install some software onto my PC. I have enough applications running on my PC already. No need to […]
A few days ago, I saw a video clip of a man who had a face tumor. Is it caused by global warming, is it the food we eat, is it the toxins in the air? I can barely imagine what measures need to be taken to restore his face to its normal appearance. In […]
Trying Out Casual Games
1 August 30th, 2007Experiments, Just Up, Musings, Problogging, Technology, Tidbits.
I have been playing a few casual games such as those made by Big Fish Games. I just discovered how addicting they are. A ‘regular’ game would have a tutorial round where they give basic and real-time instructions to learn how to play the game. These games are usually simpler than their full-cd or dvd […]
